You table runner is stunning! Great handiwork...I am such a procrastinator when it comes to this project, for some reason I keep putting it off! Maybe it's because I'm always so occupied with crocheting!

Thanks for your link! To any that wish to pop in to visit me, I extend to you a warm and welcome invitation.

I love your doily idea!! I have been collecting doily's just because I like them, not really knowing what to do with them. They have been stashed in a draw just waiting for something like this..... thank you!!

*drool* I love it! I also love the concept of doilies in general but sadly, have none. Anything fabric that lays on a table, no matter how small, gets sat on by the cats and whatever object is sitting on the fabric gets pushed aside or knocked over. Sigh.

Hello Cindy,Thanks for sharing all of these creative ways to use vintage doilies. I love the wedding dress it is so pretty. I hearted your table runner in your Etsy store. Have a wonderful day!Smiles, Paula

i also love doilies... i started to decorate my home with full of different type of doilies... with thicker yarn and colourful ones, not only white. i have put in the kitchen, in the living room, and i find some very modern ones that i just love... if you are interested you can pop in my blog, and gives you some more inspiration ...

My grandma taught me how to crochey when I was 9years old and have been doing it ever since. I love your ideas about the doiles! I also dont have have a lot of room for all my crafts and i have found that if i use baskets and labeled boxes i was more organized and less cluttered.

Congratulations to the lovely winner! Thank you for the incredible ideas for creations using doilies! I have so many of them...and, they should not spend their lives hidden away in drawers!I can't choose a favorite, although, the little heart is a delight!Thank you for your kind visit and comment on my blog, sweet friend!Blessings,Carolynn xoxo

Celebrity Wedding Planner MINDY WEISS

My name is Cindy and I would really love to write that I live a glamorous, exotic and mysterious life, traveling the world and lounging on the beaches of Monte Carlo. In reality, I was a city-dwelling (DC and Atlanta) human resource executive for 25 years who gave that all up to become an independent artisan and farm hand.
I’ve officially joined the “country club,” that is, I’ve traded in my sleek convertible Thunderbird for a pickup truck, traffic snarls for unpaved roads, cocktail parties for working the pasture, and my gym membership for running screaming from snakes, bears, bobcats and wild boar! My old, daily routine of corporate hair, makeup and suits has been replaced with Crocs, Chapstick and bug spray and I spend my days creating treasures from my growing horde (obsession) of vintage textiles.
I will admit that occasionally, while cleaning the chicken coop (translation = mucking up the chicken poo), I nostalgically miss my pearls and heels, and wonder how I ended up here ~ then I think, pft!, my now rural, retro reality beats the rat race of my former urban life any day!
